Melaka continues to impress as a regional role model by always exploring new ways to improve sustainability. By 2030, it aims to cut community emissions 45% from 2010 levels through some very bold initiatives.

Melaka is adding electric vehicles to its municipal fleet and installing charging stations throughout the city. With a robust new electric vehicle infrastructure, everyone – residents, businesses and industries – can go green and switch to electric. The city also has funding programs to reduce the energy consumption of municipal buildings and upgrade waste management.

WHY WE LOVE CITIES

Over half the world’s population now live in cities, and they generate over 70% of our climate footprint. But cities also offer an immense opportunity to create better places to live while contributing to a healthier planet in the process. Through better transport, green buildings, harnessing the power of nature, wasting less and loving more, cities can lead the way to a climate-friendly future.
